Children's Deaths

June 26, 1985

MONTREAL — ''Unquestionably the work of a serial killer.'' Gary Rosenfeldt, whose 16-year-old son was one of killer Clifford Olson's 11 victims, said the federal government should set up a Royal Canadian Mounted Police task force to investigate the deaths of children in Montreal. ''We're looking at five children over seven months,'' said the Edmonton, Alberta, resident who founded a group called Victims Against Violence. Four boys have been kidnapped and killed. A fifth is missing and believed to have been killed. Rosenfeldt said that he and his wife could not convince police that a serial killer was involved in their son's death. Seven of Olson's victims were listed as runaways, and they were not connected until a special task force was set up, Rosenfeldt said.
